The USGS is providing a grant opportunity for a CESU partner to conduct research on determining the relative vulnerability of species across various taxa and scales through multiple methods. The research aims to enhance decision-making for conservation and natural resource management by analyzing species traits and their susceptibility to specific threats. The project will contribute scientific insights on species traits, vulnerabilities, and risks crucial for informed decisions in conservation and land use planning. Application deadline is on May 21, 2019.

| Agency Name: | Geological Survey |
| Description: | The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research determining relative vulnerability across a suite of taxa and scales using multiple methods. To aid decisions about the conservation and management of natural resources, decision makers need access to accurate and timely information on the nation¿s biodiversity resources. One aspect to that decision making is understanding traits of species and how those traits affect their risk to particular threats. Through this research we aim to provide scientific knowledge about species traits, vulnerability, and risks that aid in decision analysis for conservation and land use planning. |
